CSKA - UNICS. Betting Tip for the VTB United League match
Just recently, at the VTB United League Super Cup, CSKA left UNICS with no chance. On September 21, the teams will meet in the regular championship. Which of them should you give preference to? Bets and betting tips will answer this question
Command Analysis
CSKA Moscow
Russian FederationCurrent form
After a spectacular end to last season, CSKA managed to successfully perform in the Super Cup. Pistolis' team won the tournament, defeating UNICS in the final. That match ended with a score of 87:72.
It is worth adding that before the start of the new competitions, the "army men" strengthened their lineup with Alex Avramovich. Now they look even more formidable.
Disqualifications and injuries
CSKA has no problems with its roster.
Interesting facts for betting
CSKA is confident in its matches with UNICS. The Muscovites have beaten this opponent in 4 of the last 5 matches. One of the meetings took place quite recently.
Estimated lineup : Trimble - Avramovich, M'Baye - Jean-Charles, Kurbanov.
Unics Kazan
Russian FederationCurrent form
In the offseason, UNICS lost Nenad Dimitrijevic. This is a big loss, because he was one of the team's key players. However, Kazan has some reinforcements. For example, Devon Akun-Purcell joined the team. However, even he was unable to help his new team win the Super Cup.
It is worth noting that UNICS did not come to Moscow with its main lineup. The Kazan team will be missing some players.
Disqualifications and injuries
Marcus Knight will not play in this match. Also in question is the appearance of Dmitry Kulagin and Louis Labery.
Interesting facts for betting
UNICS starts matches against CSKA well. In 2 of the last 3 face-to-face meetings, Kazan won the first set. Considering that the "army men" are taking a long time to warm up, everything can happen again.
Tentative line-up : Taylor - Toropov, Komolov - Akun-Purcell, Reynolds.
Trends
Bet 1st quarter. UNICS win
In 2 of the last 3 matches, Kazan won the opening period
1.77Bet 1st quarter: total under 41.5 points
In the last three head-to-head meetings between the teams, no more than 41 points were scored.
1.82Tip and bets
The Kazan team will not come to the capital with an optimal lineup. After all, Knight's absence is a big loss. Without him, UNICS's chances of winning are significantly lower and we agree with the bookmakers' odds. If we add the history of face-to-face matches, then our choice is obvious - a confident victory for the "army men".
Our prediction is CSKA with a handicap of (-7.5) points for 1.83
Bet on total
The teams did not score many points in their last face-to-face meetings. For example, they did not score more than 162 points in 3 of 4 meetings. Given the visitors' problems, it is unlikely that anything will change significantly now.
Betting Tip - total under 163.5 points for 1.72
Bet on statistics
The loss of Knight will definitely affect UNICS's performance. Without one of its leaders, the team is unlikely to show a good game.
Betting Tip - UNICS: total under 77.5 for 1.80
